A Brand New Beginning

Emerald Eyes

"Sir, how long has it been since Lord Andrew was imprisoned?" Madame Winfrey asked as she handed a cup of tea to Mr. Hanbridge. "One month," he sighed, "Where did I go wrong, Elizabeth? Andrew was well-behaved and educated. But as long as he met those witches, he started going downhill. And now that he is with Ophelia, I fear he becomes one of them," he took a large sip of his cup of tea, "Andrew was destined for greatness. He was born to rule this country, but he decided to take that stubborn decision of wanting to pursue magic!"

--"I blame it on Daisy Eaglenest, honestly," Madame Winfrey said sternly. "No, this attitude of him comes prior to meeting Miss Eaglenest," Mr. Hanbridge said. "But she fueled this rebellious phase of him, sir!" Madame Winfrey added, "Lord Andrew was still tamed before she met her!"

--"Are you trying to tell me something?" Mr. Hanbridge asked. "I say we make them split, sir!" Madame Winfrey replied at once, "Make Lord Andrew forget about Daisy Eaglenest!"

--"And have Ophelia all over screaming at me for intertwining in his love life? I think I will pass," Mr. Hanbridge said. "Miss Oxford does not have to know," Madame Winfrey lowered her voice, "besides, I already found a good candidate that could fit Lord Andrew."

--"And who could that be?" Mr. Hanbridge inquired. "Lady Lauren Goodwill, sir," replied Madame Winfrey, "heiress of the Goodwill family of Kent. For what I know, the Goodwill family is not associated with magic, which would be perfect to make Lord Andrew cut ties with his mother and with magic as a whole!"

--"I know my son, he will not fall for any young girl," Mr. Hanbridge sighed, "he is too attached to Miss Eaglenest."

--"Lady Goodwill is an enchanting young girl," Madame Winfrey smiled, "she will steal his heart in a blink of an eye."

--"Hmm, sounds plausible," Mr. Hanbridge sighed, putting his cup of tea on his mahogany desk, "but how will we lure Andrew in?"

--"Let us say that you want to suggest a truce," Madame Winfrey said, her smile turned into a slightly evil smirk, "Ophelia will obviously not show up. Lord Andrew might as well come by himself to protect his friends, and once he is here, we introduce him into Lady Lauren."

--"Fine, I will allow you to execute this plan," Mr. Hanbridge nodded, "as long as I get Andrew away from Ophelia," he looked down at his cup of tea. "It is my turn to keep you away from Andrew," Professor Oxford's words echoed in his head. "Sounds perfect, milord!" Madame Winfrey chuckled, "I will contact the Goodwill family right now!" she spun on her heel and hurried out of the office.

"Metamorphie faciesse!" Rogelio shouted, lifting his wand in the air. He transformed into a fox then back to normal. "It worked this time!" he smiled, "Last time I had a tail and paws!"

--"You really are improving, Rogelio," Andrew smiled. "Thanks!" Rogelio smiled, "Although, I still can't fly a broom without the potion Lydia and Sucy gave me."

--"I'm sure you will be flying a broom soon," Andrew placed his hand on his shoulders, "never give up! Besides, Akko will always be behind, cheering for you," he pointed at Akko, Sucy, Lotte, Frank, and Lydia, all cheering at Rogelio. "Hey, Mendoza!" Team Green approached the scene; Amanda carried a broom in her hands, "We heard about your struggle, so Constanze made you something."

--"A broom?" Rogelio gasped as he held the broom in his hands. "Try it, bro!" Jackson said, "Coney made some sick mods into it!"

Rogelio mounted the broom and noticed a green button. Curiously, he pressed it. The broom displayed two turbines the size of soccer balls. "Gnarly, aren't they?" Jackson asked, "The turbines were my idea."

--'Whoa! Thanks, Constanze!" Rogelio smiled widely. In response, Constanze gave him a thumbs up. The turbines then began spinning, making Rogelio shoot into the sky at a high speed. "I've got this!" Akko shouted. She placed her fingers on her lips and whistled. From the sky, the students around noticed what seemed like a shooting star. A broom with two large eagle-like wings came down and picked up Akko, sending her to the sky. "I'm coming, Rogelio! Hold on!" she shouted. Akko leaned towards Rogelio's broom carefully, firmly gripping the Shooting Star. She reached her armed out and pressed the green button, which made the turbines stop and retrieve. Rogelio then plummeted to the ground as Akko dove the Shooting Star towards him, catching him just feet above the ground. "Are you okay?" she asked, putting Rogelio down gently on the ground. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine," Rogelio replied, "I'm never going to fly at this pace."
